* fix(gallery): verification follow-ups for oci:// galleries
Follow-ups from the post-merge review of #12238 and #12239.
Only a policy decision is a refusal now. cosignverify wraps
ErrPolicyRejected around a failed signature check, an identity or
source-repository mismatch, a not_before cutoff and a missing or
unparseable bundle. A TUF, registry or network failure during
verification, or a timeout, is an outage: the gallery falls back to the
copy verified under the current policy, as it does when the registry is
down.
An oci:// gallery with a verification block, or any oci:// gallery under
strict integrity, is no longer answered by an https://, github: or
file:// mirror. Such a mirror is ignored with a warning, because nothing
can check its signature. The index of an HTTP gallery, whose policy only
covers its backend images, is cached under the URL-only name again, so no
unchecked body is stored under a policy-keyed name.
The in-memory index cache key now includes the policy. After a runtime
policy change the index is fetched again, and entries with a relative url
install again.
The registry digest lookups after install and upgrade, and in the
upgrade check, run only for real registry references (new
URI.LooksLikeRegistryOCI), not for ollama:// or ocifile://.
The refusal message names strict integrity when that is the cause, and
the gallery name is no longer repeated.
Specs pin the URL-only cache name for galleries without a policy, a fixed
key for a fixed policy, and that every GalleryVerification field changes
the key. The docs describe refusal, outage, mirrors and strict integrity.

* fix(gallery): reset listings on gallery changes, classify referrer outages
Review follow-ups for this PR.
The React UI lists from AvailableGalleryModelsCached, which is keyed by
nothing. A gallery change through the settings API or a
runtime_settings.json edit now drops that listing when the model or
backend gallery configuration differs. Before, the UI kept the old list,
with local paths into the old policy's tree, until the next background
refresh, or for good when the new policy refused the gallery.
In cosignverify, a referrer the registry fails to serve now makes the
lookup an outage whatever other referrers failed and in any order, since
the unread one may be the valid signature. An invalid policy (Validate in
NewVerifier, an unparseable not_before) is ErrPolicyRejected, because no
fetch can make it usable.
The docs say that only an oci:// gallery with a verification block skips
non-OCI mirrors, and list an unusable policy as a refusal.

* feat(settings): baseline-driven startup merge for persisted runtime settings
ApplyRuntimeSettingsAtStartup compares the live config against
DefaultRuntimeBaseline (option-less-run defaults incl. kong-injected
flag defaults) instead of per-field == 0 guards. Fixes persisted
lru_eviction_max_retries, tracing_max_items, agent_job_retention_days,
memory_reclaimer_threshold, galleries and autoload flags being
silently ignored at boot.

* fix(settings): registry-driven startup merge, applied before consumers
loadRuntimeSettingsFromFile becomes a thin wrapper over
ApplyRuntimeSettingsAtStartup and runs at the top of New(), before
model configs capture app-level defaults. WithThreads stops eagerly
resolving 0 so a persisted thread count survives restart while
LOCALAI_THREADS still wins (#10845); the physical-core fallback moves
after the merge.
Also: run.go now injects the memory-reclaimer threshold unconditionally
so the option-less boot matches DefaultRuntimeBaseline and a UI-saved
threshold survives restart.

* refactor(settings): file watcher delegates to the registry merge; shared API-key merge
Manual edits to runtime_settings.json now behave like a boot-time load

that ignored most manual edits. MergeAPIKeys dedups env keys in one
place for the endpoint and the watcher.

Document the single env/CLI > runtime_settings.json > defaults rule,

indistinguishable from unset; API-changed fields hot-apply on the next
restart only). Also add a completion debug log when the watcher applies
runtime_settings.json.

* test(settings): reset the global VRAM cap leaked by the round-trip spec
The round-trip spec applies vram_budget=12GiB, whose post-loop hook

enumeration in the ApplyRuntimeSettings doc comment.

fix(watchdog): persist a UI-saved Check Interval across restarts (#10601)
The watchdog Check Interval saved via /api/settings reverted to 500ms on
every restart, while the idle/busy timeouts persisted correctly.
Root cause: NewApplicationConfig baseline-defaulted WatchDogInterval to
500ms, whereas the idle/busy timeouts default to 0. The startup loader
(loadRuntimeSettingsFromFile) applies a persisted runtime_settings.json
value only when the field is still at its zero default - its heuristic
for "this wasn't set by an env var". Because the interval was always
500ms at that point, the loader never read the persisted value back, so
the saved interval was silently discarded on each boot.
Fix: drop the non-zero baseline default so the interval behaves like the
sibling timeouts (0 = unset). The effective 500ms default is now supplied
at the watchdog layer: WithWatchdogInterval ignores a non-positive value
so DefaultWatchDogOptions' 500ms is preserved (and a 0 interval can never
turn the watchdog loop into a busy spin). Also mirror the interval in the
live config file watcher alongside idle/busy, and report the real 500ms
default (not the stale "2s") from ToRuntimeSettings.

pii_default_detectors was applied to the live config only by a live
POST /api/settings (ApplyRuntimeSettings) — neither the startup loader nor
the config file watcher read it back. So after a restart the persisted
default detectors were dropped, and the cloud-proxy MITM listener (which
resolves each intercept host's detectors once at start via ResolvePIIPolicy)
came up with an empty set and forwarded intercepted traffic unredacted, even
though the MITM model had pii.enabled:true and the defaults were on disk.
Request-side default redaction broke the same way.
- startup.go: loadRuntimeSettingsFromFile now applies pii_default_detectors,
before startMITMIfConfigured, with env > file precedence.
- config_file_watcher.go: apply pii_default_detectors on live file edits,
matching the existing env-guard pattern used for the other fields.
- settings endpoint: rebuild the MITM listener when pii_default_detectors
changes (its per-host detector map is frozen at listener start), not only
on a mitm_listen change — so toggling a default detector takes effect on
cloud-proxy traffic immediately.
- new LOCALAI_PII_DEFAULT_DETECTORS env var / CLI flag (WithPIIDefaultDetectors)
so the default detector set can be pinned at boot for immutable deployments.

* feat: add PreferDevelopmentBackends setting, expose isMeta/isDevelopment in API
- Add PreferDevelopmentBackends config field, CLI flag, runtime setting
- Add IsDevelopment() method to GalleryBackend
- Use AvailableBackendsUnfiltered in UI API to show all backends
- Expose isMeta, isDevelopment, preferDevelopmentBackends in backend API response
* feat: upgrade banner with Upgrade All button, detect pre-existing backends
- Add upgrade banner on Backends page showing count and Upgrade All button
- Fix upgrade detection for backends installed before version tracking:
flag as upgradeable when gallery has a version but installed has none
- Fix OCI digest check to flag backends with no stored digest as upgradeable
* feat: add backend versioning data model foundation
Add Version, URI, and Digest fields to BackendMetadata for tracking
installed backend versions and enabling upgrade detection. Add Version
field to GalleryBackend. Add UpgradeAvailable/AvailableVersion fields
to SystemBackend. Implement GetImageDigest() for lightweight OCI digest
lookups via remote.Head. Record version, URI, and digest at install time
in InstallBackend() and propagate version through meta backends.
* feat: add backend upgrade detection and execution logic
Add CheckBackendUpgrades() to compare installed backend versions/digests
against gallery entries, and UpgradeBackend() to perform atomic upgrades
with backup-based rollback on failure. Includes Agent A's data model
changes (Version/URI/Digest fields, GetImageDigest).
* feat: add AutoUpgradeBackends config and runtime settings
Add configuration and runtime settings for backend auto-upgrade:
- RuntimeSettings field for dynamic config via API/JSON
- ApplicationConfig field, option func, and roundtrip conversion
- CLI flag with LOCALAI_AUTO_UPGRADE_BACKENDS env var
- Config file watcher support for runtime_settings.json
- Tests for ToRuntimeSettings, ApplyRuntimeSettings, and roundtrip
* feat(ui): add backend version display and upgrade support
- Add upgrade check/trigger API endpoints to config and api module
- Backends page: version badge, upgrade indicator, upgrade button
- Manage page: version in metadata, context-aware upgrade/reinstall button
- Settings page: auto-upgrade backends toggle
* feat: add upgrade checker service, API endpoints, and CLI command
- UpgradeChecker background service: checks every 6h, auto-upgrades when enabled
- API endpoints: GET /backends/upgrades, POST /backends/upgrades/check, POST /backends/upgrade/:name
- CLI: `localai backends upgrade` command, version display in `backends list`
- BackendManager interface: add UpgradeBackend and CheckUpgrades methods
- Wire upgrade op through GalleryService backend handler
- Distributed mode: fan-out upgrade to worker nodes via NATS
* fix: use advisory lock for upgrade checker in distributed mode
In distributed mode with multiple frontend instances, use PostgreSQL
advisory lock (KeyBackendUpgradeCheck) so only one instance runs
periodic upgrade checks and auto-upgrades. Prevents duplicate
upgrade operations across replicas.
Standalone mode is unchanged (simple ticker loop).
* test: add e2e tests for backend upgrade API
- Test GET /api/backends/upgrades returns 200 (even with no upgrade checker)
- Test POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name accepts request and returns job ID
- Test full upgrade flow: trigger upgrade via API, wait for job completion,
verify run.sh updated to v2 and metadata.json has version 2.0.0
- Test POST /api/backends/upgrades/check returns 200
- Fix nil check for applicationInstance in upgrade API routes
